PRE-DEVELOPMENT

A deal is only as solid as the foundation it’s built upon. The Real Estate Team at MarksNelson specializes in helping clients get their projects off to a solid start. We’ll show you the way, by thinking differently, boldly, and clearly. Our team will bring to the table our long-standing relationships with key real estate attorneys, bankers, and governmental entities, which enables us to provide the right resources – right away. We’ll use our financial modeling tools to develop strategies to maximize your investment while minimizing your risk. Our approach is to work through a series of “what-if” scenarios that factor in all aspects of your project. This helps us build a plan that will capitalize on your investment while minimizing your risk. We’ll provide:

Market assessments and site selection

Scenario planning and financial modeling

Risk analysis

Cash flow modeling using Argus

Economic incentive negotiations

Tax efficient structuring

DEVELOPMENT

Having a plan is one thing; taking it to fruition is another. This is the time to make sure that what you’ve modeled and planned for is actually playing out. But the truth is that during the development phase, things will change – and so must your plan. With every change, it’s important to monitor the implications on incentives, budgets, projections, and other variables. Our suite of Development Plan Services include:

Debt structuring

Contact consulting

Securing economic incentives

Cost certification audits

Tax consulting

Cost segregation
